The location of the dining room on the main deck is a happy one, as it permits the pas- senger to look out over the waters as the boat speeds along. This feature was first introduced on the lakes on sidewheelers on the City of Detroit III, and was much appreciated by the traveling public, the dining room hitherto having been located on the orlop deck.

The main dependence for decorative effect -- will be in the ceiling painting which will be devoted wholly to one sub- -- ject and will be executed by one of the foremost mural painters in the United States. The general color scheme of the gallery deck will be gray, ivory and white, chaste, simple and refined. At the after end of the gallery deck is the ladies' drawing room of Italian renaissance design with built-in seats at after end in walnut. The furniture in this room will be of walnut cov- ered in tapestry and the floor coy- ering of the best Wilton. The room will be lighted by ceiling fixtures and the general color scheme will be rose.
